Seamus Power finishes in tie for third at Mayakoba

The Waterford native could not reel in winner Russel Henley.

IN-FORM SEAMUS Power finished in a tie for third place at the at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba on Saturday.

Yesterday’s eight-under round of 63 – featuring a hole in one – Power gave some hope of chasing down leader Russell Henley, from whom he started seven shots off today. Ultimately, a three-under round of 68 was not enough to reel in Henley, who shot a one-under 70 to win the tournament. 

Power needed a fast start and birdied holes four and five, but found just one more birdie – at 13 – to finish in a tie for third. Among the players tied with him was former world number one Scottie Scheffler, who roared up the leaderboard with a nine-under 62.
